Mangrove forests under climate change in a 2°C world

Abstract The world's nations are committed to keeping global temperature rises less than 2°C avoid the worst impacts of climate change. Such a target is crucial for mangrove forests, because they located primarily in tropical and subtropical regions that expected see large changes climatic conditions; their intertidal location sensitivity environmental conditions means mangroves be on front line change impacts. We conceptualize what world might look like mangroves, particular potential negative positive responses ecosystem anticipated future atmospheric CO 2 concentrations, temperature, sea level, cyclone activity, storminess frequency, magnitude oscillations. also assess spatial distribution such stressors, relative contributions dynamics, discuss challenges attributing dynamics versus other stressors. knowledge can help future‐proof conservation restoration activities, improve Intergovernmental Panel Climate Change's confidence level ascribed highlight key thresholds beyond which certain.

Climate Change and Mangroves

Published: Jan. 1, 2022

Climate change impacts on mangroves have received considerable attention due to rising temperatures, sea level and greenhouse gas concentrations, changes in ocean circulation precipitation patterns, increasing extreme weather events. Mangrove responses depend whether critical thresholds are reached. High temperatures low lead warming events, driving mangrove mortality. Sea-level rise (SLR) will be the prime driver of future with a threshold ~6 mm a−1. Predicted rates expected exceed this at intermediate (10 Gt CO2 a−1) very high (~124 emission scenarios. The Gulf Mexico, northern Caribbean, East Asia, Philippines, eastern India vulnerable cyclones storms, Africa, Pakistan, western India, NW Australia increased aridity. Losses most oceanic islands, Indonesia, Vietnam, Australia, river deltas tidal ranges, subsidence, lack accommodation space. Mangroves may expand where rainfall increase such as Central America, SE Brazil, N W South Malaysia, Thailand. carbon sequestration viable mitigation strategy, although stocks equate only 1.6–2.6% all other ecosystems. Only ~10% projects financially sustainable but would contribute ~30 MtCO2eq a−1 yield an investment return ~US$3.7 billion a−1, sufficient meet many national climate goals.

Perception of Mangrove Social-Ecological System Governance in Southeastern Cuba

Published: July 4, 2024

This study examined local communities' perceptions of mangroves in coastal southeastern Cuba. A variety methods were employed, including mixed and structured questionnaire surveys, interviews with key informants, document reviews. Data gathered from 334 respondents living communities adjacent to four mangrove social-ecological systems (SESs). The analysis focused on five variables: community use resources, ecosystem services, threats the ecosystem, management activities, relationships. To qualitatively assess influence relationships governance, a matrix was created based anthropogenic activities identified by their services. results indicated that while people recognize uses services mangroves, they do not rely them for livelihoods. They also showed moderate full awareness responsibilities at each site. most commonly climate change, drought, deforestation. Three types characteristics communities, economic impacts mangroves: urban-industrial, rural-agricultural, rural-agricultural/tourism. Finally, research proposed set recommendations eight associated indicators ensure framework become more inclusive participatory, thereby contributing articulation SES governance region

Factors influencing mangrove carbon storage and its response to environmental stress

Mangrove forests serve as significant carbon sinks and play a crucial role in mitigating climate change. Currently, the response of mangroves to intensified change human activities, factors that influence magnitude storage their sediments remain uncertain. To address these questions, two sediment cores were collected from mangrove reserve Pearl Bay, Guangxi, China. The activity 210 Pb sediment, grain size, bulk elemental composition, stable isotopes, lignin, different organic matter (OM) fractions investigated determine local mangrove’s well influencing its storage. results showed with lower tidal ranges, slower sedimentation rates, where OM predominantly originated locally tend have larger stocks. (MOM) decreased progressively bottom top cores, indicating Bay possibly undergone degradation, which was further substantiated by decrease lignin content. Based on results, entire divided into stages: stage 1 (1963–2001) degradation 2 (2001–2020). cause is likely due impact activities; however, impacts are anticipated gradually lessen future protection policies. Our indicate can track predict growth trends provide guidance for sustainable management ecosystems.
